About Endometriosis
Endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus, often in the pelvis, causing pain, infertility, and impacting all areas of a woman’s life – from health to relationships and mental wellbeing.
Affecting 1 in 7 Australian women, some as young as 8, endometriosis still takes an average of 6.5 years to diagnose via laparoscopy and biopsy.
More than 1 million Australian women live with this condition. The Royal Hospital for Women is NSW’s only dedicated women’s hospital offering specialised endometriosis care, led by world-renowned Gynaecologist Professor Jason Abbott.
